A trip to my local "Honey Hole" lotsa pics

LOL, yea, when I picked up that old pickup, we were stapping it down on the trailer, and had a copper head wrapped around the rear axle as we were hooking the strap. I dont think I have ever jumped up so fast.

 

From the OP and those that have been there seems like a genuine hot rod man......At least its not going to the s****per!

 

Looks cool, I'll p***. Don't mind snakes till you put the rattle with them.

 

Yea, he's a hell of a nice guy, an old swap meet'r. I think alot of it came from swap meets

 

Can someone tell me exactly what this is? I am looking for that style headlight. Thanks.

 

37 ford

 

I am green with envy, that is some primo rodding material.

 

don't worry, he always loses money on stuff,

 

Wow! Places like this are my "field of dreams"!!! Thanks for sharing!

 

Anything for sale? A couple phone calls and i can have a truck and trailer ready to go.

 

As far as I know its all for sale except for maybe the stuff in the barns. I can tell you he is very fond of the stuff from the 30's.

 

Toooo cooool!

 

i wish i was closer id like to get the hood off that 58 ford

 

Thanks for taking the time to post the pics. Looks like a great place to visit, I wouldn't mind finding something like this closer to home.

Lots of mid 50's 4 dr.'s. including about half a dozen tri five Chevy's.
We have to remember that when he bought/parked some of them (30 years ago?) that 4 dr.'s were in most cases parts cars for 2 dr sedans and conv's.. Yank the front sheet metal, dash and some trim, etc. and the rest got sent to the wrecking yard. At least he grabbed them and stashed them away. Cool pics to look at.

 

Oh myyyyyyyyyyy.Yum,slobber,drool.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

Some of that stuff looks way beyond restorable, but there are quite a few things out there I'd be interested in. I know guys who long haul transports...if I had the time I'd head out there for a look.

 

Great picture's and story !!!!

 

Is it off 290 between Houston and Austin?

 

No, its off a county road here near Caldwell.
